You've got to be kidding me!


I was browsing through a catalog a couple of days ago and came across this particular item that simply floored me. It's called a "Thumb Thing," and evidently it's purpose is to make holding a book with only one hand much more comfortable. The directions say, "Just slip the tip of your thumb into the opening, and the bright plastic gadget's 'wings' hold down the opposing pages with ergonomic ease. Thumb Things are perfect little helpers for reading in bed, at the beach, or on the subway."

Just how much more lazy can our society possibly get? Seriously. If you need one of these gadgets just to read a book, you have some issues. Get some help.
